This year NPC is bringing top minds in the space of AI, ML, VR, AR, NLP, and SAAS. Unlike 5 years ago, today the question of businesses using cloud is no longer a debate. With cloud adoption becoming mainstream, the business models are shifting from licenses to subscriptions.

With this, businesses are increasingly adopting SaaS to reduce their operational costs, go to market faster, and with deeper customer insights, deliver a whole new level of value and experience.

India is at the centerstage of this shift. Our ecosystem’s sum total of decades of experience in delivering services and products to global companies means we now have the critical scale and expertise in product management, data, design, development and operations. According to a joint research report by Google and U.S. VC firm Accel Partners, by 2025, India is likely to become a $10 billion revenue industry with 8% share of the global SaaS market making us as one of the top SaaS startup destination.

Hence it is only befitting to have a dedicated track this year at NPC on all things SAAS!

This track will bring SaaS leaders and key ecosystem players on the stage to decode the SaaS opportunity for Indian startups.

We have planned for some high-quality discussions and talks with thought leaders & startups from the industry who will share their distinctive perspectives on the global opportunity and how to crack it.

Manav Garg (founder Eka Software) will start with a keynote on – Why this is the right time to build a world-class SaaS startup from India followed by a video address by Sridhar Vembu of Zoho.

Two VCs and two startups will give a holistic view of how VCs & startups are looking at the role of AI in next-gen SaaS startups. Some quick trick & hacks will be shared as part of our light talks sessions on

Achieving PMF and measuring it by Ashish of Posist & Manisha of Loginext

Hard things about Customer Delight and how critical it is – by Piyush Shah of Imobi & Anshu Verma of Intuit.

Next up, an Enterprise Panel to bring out the learnings and case studies of the enterprises adopting startups, get them to talk about how they have on-boarded, signed-up for SaaS, bring out the experiences of startups selling to Global enterprises, SMBs, & Indian customers.
